“I imagined a luminous fragrance full of joy and pleasure. The reminiscent smell of an afternoon dreaming in the orchard, comfortably installed under the fig trees.”
Inspired by the light of a sunny day in the south of France, Nathalie Lorson has composed an optimistic and reassuring fragrance. The top notes, a larger-than-life fig, is illuminated by a duo of juicy citrus mandarin and clementine. The floral heart, composed of freesia and orange blossom, meets the aromatic breath of Sri Lankan black tea. Finally, an enveloping wood accord, between the softness of Virginian cedarwood and the creaminess of sandalwood, provides comfort and refinement to the signature The voluptuous benzoin reinforces this cocooning accord with its balmy effects.

Our Approach
At Essential Parfums, we believe that haute perfumery at an accessible price is not only possible, but also the best way forward. By cutting out the middleman and traditional modes of advertising, we’re able to bypass costs that take away from the quality of our scents. We then pass these saving to you. Our design reflects this belief as well; each elegant glass bottle puts the focus on the precious contents within, labelled simply with the fragrance name and perfumer’s signature.
